Yes. This is what concerns me.
I don't like to give advice, but-Don't use Cujo as a life jacket!!
Me too. you can see it in my eyes.
(I'm up-to-date on my "shots" too! Cheers!
)
We are here for you . . .I dropped in to day for updates from you.
Keep us posted.
I still lurk here and there, but don't always have the time/ambition to contribute much these days... Hopefully that'll change eventually.
Not so much of that, although I did brew last weekend, and hope to this weekend, and the next.
You just called me funny looking didn't ya?
I thought about waiting, but decided I have a coupla minutes to spare...
You're a handsome fellow, if you lived closer I'd be offering you a dowry to take care of my daughter.
Sorry, got wrapped up in family stuff, and sick baby goo. Thank you for looking out for me!

Good to see you - hope all is well.
He is doing well. I will get a picture of him and post it.
Hi all, Mom's MRI came back clean. Good news there is no cancer but it's hard to be thankful for that as her condition has gone down hill mentally anyway. We finally got her to a behavior/memory care assessment center. She did so poorly on their testing that they gave us no hope of her coming home. She'll have to go to nursing home when discharged from there. We knew that though. She isn't capable of anything hardly so it wasn't a shock to us. Their goal at the center is to get her behavior under control with meds so she is functioning at the most she can and not be in mental agony and sorrow but still be her. On the right track finally.
I am sorry for bashing the medical field so bad but it's shameful how angry I had to get to get anything done in a timely fashion. I know it's not the nurses fault or the labs. Mom's dr refused to see what was happening and believe the family that lived with her 24 hours a day. He prolonged mom's agony and ours and I am furious with him at the moment.
Thanks again for all the kind words and prayers. I knew you were all here and it helped.

Prayers will continue that the right meds are found to make you mom comfortable.Now is a time for you to take care of you- surgery approaches. You need to be in a calm place.
you have every right to be upset with her doctor-they need to learn to listen to those who see first hand. No excuses.
Holding you and family in deepest prayers.

I don't blame you one bit. I'm glad you can move forward with her care and treatment. Breathe and know you did what you had to do, unfortunately forced into it, but you prevailed.
Good and bad news and again, I'm sorry. I wish her peace and please keep us posted.

In my personal, professional experience, the doctor or nurse or aide or therapist or whomever who won't listen to the family is a fool, lucky not to be in jail.
gniknehpets maybe there is medication to manage her behavior in the long run? Is it treatable, or is it a disorder that just keeps deteriorating no matter what?
